July 21st, 2004
Our first night getting to know you. You were wide awake and just stared up into our eyes and we were in love.
We have always loved your sweet, precious cheeks.
The day you turned one.
You have always had a stuffed animal that you devote all your love to. It has changed from year to year. This year it was the big brown bunny that you carried everywhere.
The day we found out we were having another baby. We just didn't know then how true that shirt would be, "Worlds Best Big Sister"
Running full speed through the fountains and loving every minute
Peeking into a bird nest. You were fascinated at 2 and you are still so at 6. Now you go around calling yourself "a bird watcher"
"Again, Again, Again" This is still what you shout to daddy when he throws you up in the sky.
You wanted to be a farm girl even when you were 2!
This was taken when you were 3, and we had no idea then how much you would love dinosaurs at age 6. You are having a dinosaur party this year!
You have always been crazy about some chocolate.
This is the look..The look we get when you are about to tell us what you really think and we better watch out!
Enjoying life, running through the waves.
You had the goat in a head lock. You were going to make sure he took that bottle from you one way or another. This is the Kate we all know.
One of my most precious moments ever. The day you met your sister. You have a deep love for one another that is so special and it started the day she was born.
Our silly Kate, always making us laugh.
Surrounded by all of your animals that you toted everywhere. Your favorites were the "bungies"
The famous "purple dress" that I will always save for you, even though it is in tatters from all the love.
Painting your nose with orange pollen. Never a dull moment with you.
The three amigos. You love these two so much, and they love you!
A daily scene around our house. I love watching you all play together. It's a good thing you and Anna have moved on to dinosaurs now so Caleb isn't stuck with dolls all the time!
One of your best days. The day we helped baby birds learn to fly. You had so much fun that day.
Being silly as usual
Snuggling with daddy
Learning to read. You were so proud!
The famous "green dress"
You go non-stop from the moment you wake up until you finally surrender to sleep. You always look so peaceful sleeping. I love to sneak in and kiss those sweet cheeks and breathe in your sweet smell.
Our little acrobat!
Happy Birthday Sweet Kate. You have lived these first six years to the fullest. I pray you will always have your enthusiasm for life that you do now. We love you so much!
